Week 50 Review: Phantom Game

From Goodreads:
Two predators collide with unbridled passion in this intoxicating GhostWalker novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Christine Feehan.

Jonas "Smoke" Harper has watched his brothers find their perfect mates, never imagining he'd actually meet someone who complements every part of him--even the monster that lurks within. But his instant connection with Camellia goes far beyond wanting the intelligent, beautiful, and lethal woman in his bed. They are two parts of a whole, linked to each other and to a larger network that exists everywhere around them.

Camellia has lived on her own for a long time, relying on her unique psychic abilities to keep her safe. She knows that Jonas was literally made for her, and that makes their addictive connection more dangerous than a thousand enhanced super soldiers. Once the larger threat looming over them is dealt with she's going to get far away as fast as she can. Life has taught her that the only one she can truly trust is herself.

Jonas can sense Camellia is going to run--and the hunter inside doesn't want to let go. Not when he knows how good they'll be together. So he'll just have to use all of his considerable skills to convince her to stay....

My Review:
I really enjoyed reading this book! I love this series so much, it's the one that introduced me to Christine Feehan's writing in the first place, so it holds a special place in my heart! And it was really great to go back to Team 1, we've been away for so long, and it was really great to catch up with them!

Camellia was a really great character to read about, because her particular enhancements that Whitney did to her-and to Jonas-were really interesting to read. I've never heard of the Middlemist Red Camellia, but they were really interesting to read about! 

The bulk of this book is their introduction, and that first day that they know each other. Then we got some time jumps, and the final battle, which was short and intense. Which was a little weird, but it's how their particular stories work-and how little trust she has, given how often she's been betrayed and by whom, well, Jonas is good for her 

This book did a lot. With their romance, and her trust issues, his issues with his enhancements and the aggression that they brought up in him. Some of our previous couples, and some of the issues that they were having. And Ivy, who I'm really hoping we'll see in a future book! 

This was another really great book in the series, and I can't wait for the next!
